The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you may imagine that there would be little affinity for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it seems to be operating the other way, with the awful economic conditions leading to a larger desire to gamble, to try and discover a quick win, a way out of the problems.
For many of the people surviving on the meager nearby wages, there are 2 common types of betting, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else in the world, there is a state lotto where the probabilities of hitting are extremely tiny, but then the winnings are also extremely big. It’s been said by financial experts who understand the concept that many do not buy a ticket with the rational expectation of profiting. Zimbet is centered on one of the domestic or the British football divisions and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other foot, pander to the exceedingly rich of the state and vacationers. Up till not long ago, there was a incredibly large sightseeing industry, founded on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated bloodshed have carved into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which contain gaming tables, slot machines and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have slot machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there is a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Given that the economy has deflated by more than forty percent in recent years and with the associated poverty and conflict that has resulted, it is not well-known how well the tourist industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the in the years to come. How many of the casinos will carry on till conditions improve is merely not known.
